Playing as protagonist Artyom, players enter into a Post-Apocalyptic wasteland of Russia following a nuclear war to deal with hostile humans and mutated creatures while looking for a means to survive amidst a devastated metro of Moscow.

Even though the game largely belongs to FPS genre, it nicely balances aspects of combat and stealth with the survival horror undertone. Classic gameplay style of the series returns once again in a sandbox exploration experience.

A beautifully designed in-game open world equipped with a dynamic weather system only compliments the tight story of the title so much. Whatever choices you make throughout your journey will have consequences and affect your companions in the end.

Your surroundings will offer you scopes to scavenge and craft hand-made weaponry on the go to better prepare yourself for tactical combat whenever danger presents itself in form of deadly mutants and human enemies alike to survive.

Artyom and his fellow Spartan Rangers are accompanied by a returning character, Anna on their way to salvation. If you think fighting hostile creatures in the freezing weather of a nuclear winter is bad, just wait for the entire plot to unfold upon you.

Partnering up with video game industry giant Epic Games, they are bringing the third and latest title from Metro franchise on Epic Games Store digital distribution platform and are still taking pre-orders till it finally arrives on February 15. 2019.

Even though PC players won't be able to purchase the game from Steam anymore on launch, any pre-order that was placed earlier for Standard Edition will be fulfilled including DLC for Gold Edition of the game through expansion pass in post-launch period.

Of course, players that previously enjoyed playing Metro 2033 and Metro: Last Light would be looking for the upcoming open world FPS and the studio behind Fortnite recognized the obvious potential for the title to be on their store.

It was only a few weeks ago when another AAA developer/publisher Ubisoft decided to ditch Steam for The Division 2 to become an exclusive for Epic Games Store. Considering the higher revenue split as a major game changer, Deep Silver claims this to be a win for them and players.

Recognized as a pro-developer platform, Epic Games tries to be friendly with their valued customers as well. Instead of the regular price of $59.99, the game will be priced only $49.99 at Epic Games Store, a direct result of their 88% revenue split.

After fighting for so long beneath the surface, the survivors decide to leave the safety of underground tunnels and will be traveling on a train, the Aurora. They all head to the east for the Ural Mountains and face feral mutants on their way just like always.

This second sequel of the franchise has twice the amount of content than its predecessor Last Light and Artyom's wife, Anna is returning to take part in the action while she narrates their current status quo where she no longer remembers what life was like before.

A few other characters were given a short glimpse of and it seems like they all have gotten involved in some sort of power struggle that forced them to leave the safety of their former sanctuary and go out in the open dystopia.

Deep Silver and Microsoft has also announced Metro Saga Xbox One X Bundle that comes with a 1TB console with the entire trilogy from the series, now available for pre-order. This is a great way to catch up to the prior titles before jumping on board with the latest release.

Metro Exodus will be competing with some of the major titles like Anthem, Crackdown 3 and Far Cry New Dawn in a jam-packed February 2019 release window. However, given the dedicated fan-following they have, it can still fare on its own.

Metro Exodus will take players back to post-apocalyptic Russia on February 2019 and released the opening cinematic to celebrate the release.

As a successor of Metro 2033 and Metro: Last Light from Metro series of first-person shooter games, Metro Exodus was announced back in June 2017 at E3 2017. Initially, the game scheduled for a fall 2018 release window but then pushed to the first quarter of 2019.

However, developer 4A Games and publisher Deep Silver has recently revealed that now they are planning to release the title a full week earlier than planned, on February 15, 2019 to made available for PC, PlayStation 4 and Xbox One.

The cinematic opens up in a landscape of a ruined world, long abandoned and everything around covered in the cold of the Earth as a reflecting deep woe-filled background score tries to carry us away in the moment.

Harsh winds blow away snows from many figures on the street, revealing their doomed fate in an unforgiving surrounding. The self-destructive nature of humanity is depicted in a very subtle way and thus, establishing the premise for anyone seasoned or casual.

After cramming down the remaster of both Metro 2033 and Metro: Last Light into Metro Redux, the Ukrainian development team has gone into the development phase for the next game and third installment of the series.

Even before the story was adapted into video games, Metro series was a super-hit original novel from author Dmitry Glukhovsky and that popularity has led to the eventual conception of a post-apocalyptic survival horror experience for fans.

Last month, Metro Exodus Spartan Collector's Edition was announced at Xbox X018 Event that is priced $149.99 only and comes with a highly detailed resin statue of protagonist Artyom fending off a deadly Watchman with a bunch of collectible goodies.

Earlier, Deep Silver has delayed the launch date so that 4A Games can have a proper take at the version of Metro Exodus they had in mind and since they have almost wrapped up the project, there is no reason to push back the calendar.

Originally scheduled for a fall 2018 release date, Metro Exodus is now confirmed for Q1 2019 release date.

Up until now, use thought Metro Exodus of the Metro series of first-person shooter games and a sequel to Metro: Last Light from developer 4A Games and publisher Deep Silver was about to release on 2018 as per official announcement but that just changed now!

The parent company for the publisher, THQ Nordic has stated on their Blog that previously scheduled fall 2018 release date for the game is pushed back to the first quarter of 2019. They still are deciding a release window for Biomutant and Darksiders III.

After making a spectacular entry in E3 2017, we hoped to get on board with the game this year and journey through its barren landscape to fight scary mutants this year but fate seems to be not with us on this one.

According to their recent statement, the development process is still progressing and they are pretty happy with the finished result. Just because they want us to experience their finest effort when we get to play it, they are taking time to make sure that happens.

So, even though it is for the best but waiting another year for a game is quite tiring after you already spent one in anticipation. However, fans of Metro series must realize that 4A Games had to do this to live up to everyone's expectation and promises to not disappoint you when the game is finally released.

All they are doing on the next eight to nine months is to fully focus on polishing the game players truly deserve. This constant process is getting all the attention it needs and so we need to wait.

Metro Exodus will be available to play on PC, PlayStation 4 and Xbox One once it is released worldwide. Series protagonist Artyom will return for a bigger open-world experience in a post-apocalyptic Moscow and a few fellow survivors will tag along.

Just because they hit us with a bummer, 4A Games promised to reveal a new footage containing brand new gameplay set on a different location of in-game environment we have not seen yet! That's some consolation there.
